In the second instalment of my solo podcast series where I am diving into the key topics that have positivity impacted my thirties, I am sharing my personal journey of freezing my eggs at the age of 35.
After an unexpected break-up at age 33, I started to explore the option of freezing my eggs as an insurance policy for the future.
Six months ago, I went through one round of egg-freezing and in this episode I am answering the most common questions I have received about it.
Questions that I answer include:
How I went from considering it to actually going through with it
How much it costs
The ideal age to freeze eggs
Where to start once I decided to go ahead
How to prepare your body before
Details of the process itself
How the hormones affected me
The egg-retrieval itself
How I felt afterwards
If I shared with men I was dating
I am such an advocate for sharing knowledge about female fertility and I have used this episode as an opportunity to give a true insight into what it’s really like.
I also invite you to check out my journey at my private egg-freezing IG account @emmaseggs, where I documented in real-time.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a medical professional and any of the medical information shared in this episode is a culmination of my personal research, personalized information from my own healthcare professionals and my own experience freezing my eggs.
I am not a fertility doctor and if you have further questions or want tailored medical advice, I recommend taking this up with your own healthcare provider
